Powerful Pete relayed such a scenario of ordinary guys juicing up for Gran Fondo's etc who were not kids and had nothing to gain other than bragging rights for dropping someone. There was another similar scenario reported in America.

Then there must be people who would not try and get an advantage or unaware, but maybe taking testosterone patches, viagra, asthma inhalers etc.

Eh, people are blowing the Batenkill thing out of proportion. Its a big race in terms of hype and size, but honestly the fields aren't much more competitive there's just more of them. Looking at his other results he wasn't really that good and quite a few local 3's that I know have beaten him or finished around his placings and none of them are hoping to go pro.

The guy honestly wasn't that good at doping, which is funny. Probably coulda just eaten/trained smarter and gotten the same result.
